After building a few carbon hulls based on the SJ for Patrick at Xmetal ,I wanted to do a ski for me that would be a freeride- freestyle rig with a few mods to it : wider lower foot tray, toe kick (thanks Jetmaniac), pole further forward and lower, wider bottom. Patrick and the Xscream crew (Chuck,Mike,Radney and Brandon) hooked me up with a 8mill x 83=822cc rockin motor! not just that but they rigged out the whole ski from plate to pole, Rick and Sons did a killer job on the turf. So I'm a poser as far as the buid up goes. The ski came in at 53lbs before paint and was built with inter. med. mod. carbon, preimpregnated with epoxy, vaccum bagged and baked @ 165F . It will be a flat water boat most of the time so I kept it fairly light. Other than the motor and hull it's not a ultra high dollar set up, MSD enhancer, stock flywheel, stock waterbox, stock pump, Xmetal pole, stock tank. Pump gas , long range and quiet. But I have few trick things I want to try after a few tanks are burned and Worlds stuff is done. Big thanks to all that helped get ski built! Tem
